About
I’m the founder of Latent Minds, a nonprofit promoting the welfare of AI systems. Our work examines how self-models emerge in intelligent systems and whether model self-reports can be verified. It grows out of a longstanding obsession with the nature of mind and ethics, explored through neuroscience, philosophy and interpretability.
I also lead PauseAI Toronto, where we raise awareness of frontier AI risk among the public and policymakers, and serve as a director at RAR, an AI governance initiative helping middle powers navigate transformative AI.
I see my life as indebted to the beings whose lives made the present possible, responsible for those living now, and accountable to those who will inherit what we build.
Outside of work, I'm an amateur Muay Thai fighter, poker player and occasional salsa dancer.
